The Mayor’s Fund for Los Angeles, in partnership with VolunteerLA and the Mayor’s Office, is excited to award five 501(c)(3) nonprofits with a mini grant of $5,000 to use towards their online/digital volunteer recruitment in 2022. As more in person opportunities return, knowing many programs have been impacted for nearly 2 years due to COVID, this mini grant seeks to support digital volunteer recruitment efforts for agencies that have been impacted by the pandemic.
Funds may be used towards a wide variety of costs associated with digital volunteer recruitment efforts including, but not limited to, paid social media recruitment ads, staffing/consulting services, photographers, design resources such as Canva/Photoshop, etc. If selected, grant resources must directly correlate to organizational volunteer recruitment efforts and not fundraising or programmatic expenses.
